People can’t stop cracking up over the former president’s bizarre, bumbling speech.

Speaking outside Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, Donald Trump left everyone confused when he attempted to explain the Battle of Gettysburg, praised (and invented a quote from) Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and generally had no idea what he was talking about.

When his off-the-cuff remarks hit late-night television on Monday, the hosts couldn’t hide their laughter.

“You have to hand it to this guy: On the weekend before his unprecedented criminal trial begins, he somehow manages to overshadow it with this broken-brained interpretation of what happened at Gettysburg during the Civil War,” Jimmy Kimmel quipped.

    He kept the stolen classified documents in the Mar-a-Lago bathroom next to a copy machine. He is far too fucking dumb for a covert signal delivered publicly.

    There are no consequences for any of his actions so there is no need for it either. He’ll just go on national TV and literally say, “everyone in the hate group, stand by.”

      The guy that said “RUSSIA… IF YOU’RE LISTENING…” on TV? Yes, your assessment is correct.

        Yes. After a full year of saying he won’t accept election results unless he wins. And then we had an insurrection. So it is cool that even to this day we have clowns on social media pretending he didn’t attack the country.
